Are sacrificial rituals allowed in sectional titles?

14 July 2021

A neighbour in my sectional title unit is very traditional, and has been hinting that he wants to hold a... sacrificial slaughter at his home as an offering to his ancestral spirits.

Can you convert the garage of your sectional title unit into an extra room?

13 September 2019

In our sectional title scheme, I’ve heard that one of the unit owners is busy planning to convert her garage... into a hair salon and then park her car in the public parking area.
